Ime, anything over talking volume can be clearly heard next door, with heavy bass being the most annoying. If you can hear it upstairs, then they can definitely hear it next door
Get some decent headphones if you're listening at unsociable hours

Im trying to figure out at what volume i can have my speakers without disturbing my joining neighbours. Its a semi detatched new build.
If i go upstairs in my house and i can feel mild thumping from downstairs is it likely to be quiter or louder (more noise transmission) next door?
If you can feel a thumping, they can almost certainly hear it. If you want to blast music, make sure they aren't in the house.If i go upstairs in my house and i can feel mild thumping from downstairs is it likely to be quiter or louder (more noise transmission) next door?
I play guitar and have a tube amp. Tube amps need to be played at or above a certain volume threshold (depending largely, but not completely, on the wattage of the amp) to work properly and generate the tone properly. For tube amps, this is invariably loud. I've learned to spot my neighbours taking their dog out, and as soon as they are out of the house the amp is cranked up and shaking the foundations of the house. I'd never put them through that while they are in the house next door, getting into a noise war is bad news and there are no winners. When they are in the house, or during the night, I play my guitar with headphones one. I do the same with music. Be kind to your neighbours y0.
